Shameless Self-Promotion Time: EMU Preview

 I should probably try to make it to a game at the Crisler Arena Center Building so I don't have to keep using this picture

I haven't put anything up over at Maize n Brew since The Game, so I figured I would get back into the swing of things over there:

After handling West Virginia with relative ease in Brooklyn on Saturday, Michigan enjoyed a nice long break, which ends tonight as the Wolverines take on their intra-county friends, the Eastern Michigan Eagles.

Michigan enters the contest at 11-0 and ranked No. 2 in the country; to say that the season has been a success thus far would is like gently intimating that everyone involved in the NHL lockout negotiations is engaged in an act of extended self-flagellation. No, yeah, that's an understatement.

Anyway, the Wolverines have swagged their way through the requisite slate of awful teams while generally handling the teams with a pulse (N.C. State, Pitt, Kansas State). The underlying concern through it all has been thus: What happens when the shots stop falling and the freshman --namely Stauskas-- start to play like freshmen?

You can read the rest here. Let the mythical Washtenaw County Cup trophy be ours! This trophy is definitely not just  replica of this made out of hamburger meat:

p.s. Miss you that Big Boy that used to be by the Meijer on Ann Arbor-Saline. This win's for you.
